AMINO ACIDS, PEPTIDES AND PROTEINS: VOLUME 37. This item is unavailable.AMINO ACIDS, PEPTIDES AND PROTEINS: VOLUME 37

Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins comprises a comprehensive review of significant developments at this biology/chemistry interface. Each volume of this Specialist Periodical Report opens with an overview of amino acids and their applications.

Volume 37 marks the return of the series after a five-year hiatus, with Professors Etelka Farkas (Debrecen, Hungary) and Max Ryadnov (National Physical Laboratory, UK) as the new volume editors. There has been considerable progress in the field since the last publication in 2007, and predominantly this volume looks back over the last two year rather than the usual 12-months. However, traditional concepts are also revisited in the context of recent discoveries.

Each chapter incorporates current trends of the reviewed topic and the authors' outlook of future perspectives. This is to facilitate the monitoring of the covered areas and their potentianl expansion with the inclusion of other specialist reports in subsequent volume. All chapters are compiled by leading researchers in their subject areas which offers this series as an appealing source of information for the research community in both academia and industry.

Max Ryadnov leads Biometrology research area at NPL. He is also a visiting Professor at King’s College London and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Royal Society of Biology. Max obtained his MSc in Biochemistry (summa cum laude) from the Russian Academy of Sciences and PhD in Chemistry from Moscow State University. Following his academic tenures at Bristol (URF) and Leicester (Lecturer), he joined NPL as a Principal Research Scientist in 2010. Over the last 10 years, his contributions to physical and life sciences have been recognised by a NESTA Crucible Innovation Award, a SUPA lectureship in Chemical Physics with the University of Edinburgh and Fellowships in the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Royal Society of Biology. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications (incl. primary reports in Angew Chem, JACS, Nature Mater, Nature Commun, PNAS), numerous book chapters, two books, several international patents, and is a co-editor of two RSC book series – Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins and Synthetic Biology.
